i wonder if one were to bolt the intake to a flow bench, tape some yarn to the plenum, and watch what happens. maybe blocking off the runners you don't want to see ? or is that a common practice these days ? i have no idea how anyone does this stuff these days, so just bear with an old guy's blabbering.............
pretty hard to do - its all about how they act under actual operating condition - with the different pulses created by the intake valves opening - Kaase has built some box type intakes out of clear lexan for this purpose The mod-man intake was built as a universal design - its a clunky intake at best I have played with putting some brodix turtles in the base - seemed to help with bottom end on the street - I have not used one on a race motor
